I can't help but occasionally wonder what you would think of these as I work on them, which is an odd thing for me.Matt Kishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17854685960260054407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265792817762899253.post-64970285765889514402012-06-19T14:48:30.138-04:002012-06-19T14:48:30.138-04:00I love the way this immediately evokes the microsc...I love the way this immediately evokes the microscopic life that, even now, is invading Marlow's body.RFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02496214708145098381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265792817762899253.post-32619597979163565482012-06-19T13:30:20.983-04:002012-06-19T13:30:20.983-04:00Fingers crossed for you on the eccentric millionai...Fingers crossed for you on the eccentric millionaire, but I'll be here in the meantime! :)Sandy Longhornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04735445958970512617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265792817762899253.post-37127834402309048942012-06-19T11:31:57.806-04:002012-06-19T11:31:57.806-04:00Thank you Sandy.

It's a bit of an homage to the prehistoric vistas so vividly depicted in the dinosaur books I obsessed over as a child. As is very fitting really for this passage and a book about a journey in the most primal of jungles.<br /><br />I am absolutely certain I will be selling these all. I hope to begin with a gallery show of all 100 pieces, but that should not preclude me claiming this one for you. Unless of course (as I always say) some eccentric millionaire with a zen for Conrad offers me six figures for the entire series. Other than that, it's yours.Matt Kishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17854685960260054407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265792817762899253.post-11219024436385981702012-06-19T10:05:12.276-04:002012-06-19T10:05:12.276-04:00Breathtaking, Matt.
